There are solutions available!
Political decisions in which one candidate is granted victory, simply because they obtained the highest percentage of the vote by the electorate effectively establishes a dictatorship in the seat of power garbed in the guise of democracy. Especially when three or four losing candidates, whose votes combined would equal a higher total than the perceived winning candidate, split the vote.
The mere existence of such structures, undermines the representation of the people, for democracy can only exist with the presence of the people, and not in the presence of representatives of the people. Parliaments have become a legal barrier between people and their right to exercise authority. They exclude the masses in order to prevent them from practising politics, and monopolize the control of politics in their name.
Proportional representation by political parties and coalitions, such as what exists in the world today, is false representation and only delivers power to the elites of society, not the masses. That's why we have the 99% around the world rising up against it, Occupying Wall Street, US states breaking away from the federal government and countless riots and wars around the world.
We are the 99% and all the solutions we need are available right now!
To organise ourselves with real democracy!
Groups like the International People's Conferences Organisation, the International Green Charter Movement, Better Democracy NZ, The Bolivarian Center and many more are offering solutions we can use to get back our empowerment through Direct Democracy. The most important aspect is to form into groups that have regular meetings aimed at sharing this knowledge and discussing local problems and solutions that are known to work. These groups can be in local regions, or online social networks forming into groups of common interest.
Independent research groups such as Sons of Liberty Academy, Tragedy & Hope, Global Research and Casey Research, independent journalists and news like Stefan Molyneux, James Corbett, John Pilger, Dean Henderson and RT have very accessible and well researched knowledge we can share amongst ourselves.
To fix this broken financial system!
Positive Money New Zealand is a campaign to move New Zealand from a debt-based economy to one that operates with a full reserve in which money has been issued debt-free and interest-free. This will free the nation and its people from the crippling effects of ever increasing interest bills - that keep the majority of people on the debt treadmill. The campaign is based on one that has been running in the UK called Positive Money which started in May 2010 as well as a similar one in the United States called the American Monetary Institute.

Occupy Wall Street spreads around the World
On the 17th of September, hundreds of people gathered in Wall Street, New York to protest against the corrupt financial system that has systematically taken over the US government and enslaved the people. This movement became known as Occupy Wall Street and has now begun to spread to hundreds of other locations around the US and the world, including here in Auckland. Other groups such as Occupy Together, October2011.org, LA Activist and People's Conferences are springing up to help organise people and raise awareness of the problems and groups dedicated to solutions.
